start peeling bark off logs for rafters


This is the first picture we have of the house project. It's early June '05 and our neighbor has hauled the logs for the rafters up from the wooded area of our property to the open area near where the house will be built. The logs had been sitting in the woods in the shade since we cut them down (a couple months earlier). Now, they're out in the open and we have to keep the bark from drying out before we can peel it all off. After every couple of logs or so, we take a break and hose down the logs waiting to be peeled. This is Kelly watering the logs.
